An 18 year old who loves all sports, namely the likes of AFL, cricket, tennis and NFL. Scott Pendlebury, Adam Gilchrist and Tom Brady are a part of my all-time favourites.

I actually go for Collingwood, but the best defensive side wins, that seems right for me.
AFL finals predictions: Dockers to win the flag
Ben Sinclair has only played about two to three good matches this year, and Paul Seedsman has been injured in patches, Marley Williams would b a lot closer then both of them, as the other two aren’t anywhere near the team.
Possible All-Australian team (part II)
Paul Sinclair? Do you mean Paul Seedsman or Ben Sinclair?
Possible All-Australian team (part II)
He should be played in defence, he has the potential to be an excellent quality defender.
A positive Essendon story: Shuffling the plethora of big men
No matter what Hurley has to be included, he is a star. Daniher is definitely there and so is Carlisle. I also think that Bellchambers must say and Crameri would make up what would be a favourable preference.
A positive Essendon story: Shuffling the plethora of big men
I have listened to all of your opinions and thoughts and I have made a new team suited to what your recommendations are.
My possible 2013 AFL All-Australian team
Definitely! And yes agreed but I’m trying to make sure my writing isn’t to biast on the mighty magpies!
From hope to expectation: Collingwood hammer Sydney (again)
Why thank you! And yes, every Collingwood player did seem to stand out didn’t they, especially Harry O! Hopefully his troubles are now behind him and he can dominate finals like he has been doing earlier in the year!
Collingwood wins in the timeslot that nobody wanted
Well, other than Ben Reid, Collingwood have to rely on Cloke even if his kick is horrible. He is the only tall option they have, so Collingwood have to have confidence in him. It is a shame that Reid isn’t played forward more though, because his marking and kicking are truly brilliant, especially his kicking.
Twice in a lifetime: Collingwood vs Adelaide preview
A lot of other people on this website predicted that they would win by around 50 points.
The arm-wrestle that nobody predicted: Collingwood edge Adelaide
Prior didn’t hit his ball to cover, it was to mid-wicket from a mistimed pull shot. I also think that Stuart Broad should have walked, and even though he will get booed by Aussies this summer, I would like to see if the situation would have been any different if an Aussie batsman had had that happened to him.
Geoff Lemon's Ashes Diary: Agar fairy tale ends, the real world intrudes
Thank you very much! And I agree but luckily the Pies eventually won !
The unexpected mauling: Collingwood vs Carlton
Thanks for your opinion, I respect it and agree with it.
The rematch: Collingwood v Carlton preview
Sorry about the players not playing, I wrote this before the teams came out! Luckily Young is in for O’Brien, that helps, but our ruck is in a bit of trouble, with Hudson not being as nearly as good as Jolly. It is wishful thinking for Elliot but the greatness about footy is that you never know what can happen, and Collingwood always seem to bounce back well after a horror week, so that’s why I think the Magpies can narrowly win against the arch rival.
The rematch: Collingwood v Carlton preview
That women’s final certainly was a mismatch, but luckily Djokovic and Nadal made up for it. The 2009 Final was fantastic, as well as the 2008 Australian Open! All agreed.

Both could be said, as even though Australia are currently not that good, England boasted quite a lot before they nearly lost to New Zealand.
Are England too cocky? The 2013 Ashes preview
I would say it was in the way that he came in and hit a good boundary and the crowd at the Gabba really started cheering for him, with only a superb catch by Steyn ending his innings.
A resilient draw: Australia v South Africa, 1st Test 2012/13
Yes I agree with that one, but both were absolutely brilliant tennis matches. In Nadal’s case I feel sorry for him because he would have beaten anyone else other than Djokovic if he had played like he did that night, but then again you have to be the best player on the night, and that was Djokovic, but only just. Thank you for your comment, and that is a great prediction!

The Dockers pressure will be even greater then it was against the Swans because they are playing on a smaller ground than Paterson’s. If they can pressure a team at Subiaco then they can pressure a team absolutely anywhere.
